This morning I hit the Fitness Center for the treadmill and Brian and John hit the pool for some more sun. We then packed up the truck and headed to Marco Island. Our route took us along Alligator Alley, between the Big Cypress Preserve and Everglades National Park. It is not just a clever name but a very deserved name. We saw a gazillion alligators. But unfortunately, have no photos to prove it at the moment. We are planning a trip into the Everglades this week so we should have good pics then. We checked into our home for the week at Olde Marco Inn and Suites and then headed to Southwest International Airport in Ft. Myers to pick up my brother-in-law Corey. Dinner was at CJ’s on the Bay, which I would highly recommend. I just am ready for some home cooked meals! Tomorrow AM we are going grocery shopping and then hitting the beach.
